Today’s Dealmaster includes a handful of notable first-party Nintendo Switch games marked down to $40 at various retailers, including Super Mario Odyssey, New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition. While we’ve seen a couple of these games go for slightly less around Black Friday, Nintendo still tends to be stingy about discounting its own Switch titles, so each deal is about $5-10 lower than the usual going rates we see online over the majority of the year.
More importantly, the games themselves are worth the money: Odyssey is virtually a must-have for any Switch owner or Mario fan, Fire Emblem pairs an engaging tactical-RPG with a surprisingly nuanced (anime) political thriller, and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe and Xenoblade Chronicles are touched-up versions of a well-liked 2D platformer and a beloved action-RPG, respectively. If you’re a Switch owner looking for something new to play, you could certainly do worse.
Elsewhere, our deals roundup has lower-than-usual prices on a number of Amazon devices ahead of Mother’s Day—including our longtime favorite e-reader, the Kindle Paperwhite—as well as recommended true wireless earbuds from Jabra, GPS running watches from Garmin, noise-canceling headphones from Sony, and much more. You can check out the full rundown below.
